Breaking the Barriers — AB
Overview
Written from the facts in this map's file
Breaking the Barriers is a medium underground map for Armageddon's Blade, measuring 72 by 72 tiles and set on two levels. It supports four players, all of whom may be human, arranged into two teams. Red and Blue choose their factions at random, while Orange and Pink both play Fortress. Rock covers roughly 39 percent of the terrain, with swamp at about 35 percent, water at 11 percent and grass at 11 percent. Victory comes from defeating every enemy, and a player loses once all of their towns and heroes are gone. The map is rated hard and holds six towns and the Grail, along with a Crown of Dragontooth and twenty random artifacts. Wandering monsters include lizardmen, gnolls, basilisks and a rust dragon, and dwellings offer a wide range of creatures.
